    "Iupiter" or "Iuppiter" was his name is in original latin (modern form in english and german: Jupiter) and he was the godfather in ancient roman theology - Ζεύς or Zeus is the greek godfather. One can say that Zeus is Iupiter in roman mythology. The concept of a godfather existed in both culture and some of the greek mythology was adopted to the roman mythology after they conquered parts of greece.

    Ist mir bekannt - ich habe auch gar nichts gegen die These, dass viele Norweger die Deutschen "nicht mögen" - auch wenn das keineswegs meine persönliche Erfahrung ist. Aber mich in den Komentaren mit Hitler zu vergleichen geht schon etwas zu weit, denn das ist eine persönliche Beleidigung - ich vergleiche den jungen Mann ja auch nicht mit negativen Beispielen aus der norwegischen Geschichte. Das Verhältnis zwischen Deutschen und Russen war aber früher schon mal schlechter. Was mich persönlich angeht: unsere direkten Nachbarn sind aus Kasachstan - die sind sehr nett und waren etwas überrascht, als ich ihnen in der Sylvesternacht mit "с новым годом" kam ...

    I did not intend to hijack this thread, but I think one should have a look on the comments under Hirotosama's answer "Maybe like us Norwegians don't like the Germans because of the war? ._.". Please tell me what you think about the comparison he made - at the moment I do not know how to react to such an insult. Sorry to disturb ...

    "Thomas, bitte grüße (meine/deine/unsere) Mutter" oder "Thomas, bitte richte (meiner/deiner/unserer) Mutter Grüße aus" das zweite ist formeller.

    You can use "Still!" also in german. A: I didn't kill him, i just mugged him. - Ich habe ihn nicht getötet - ich habe ihn nur beraubt. B: Well, still! That's bad enough as it is! - Still/Sei still - Es ist so schon schlimm genug. Gebräuchlich ist noch: Schweig still - klingt altmodisch Schweig(e)! / Schweigen Sie! Halt den Mund! / Halten Sie den Mund! - Umgangssprache Halt die Klappe - Umgangssprache

    The ice dissolves with increasing temperature. The ice dissolves with the increasing of temperature. The ice dissolves in increased temperature. I think all three are possible - I don't know "inceasing" (wrong spelling?)

    Jura's answer is nearly perfect for a medical untrained person. Just try to protect the accident site, yourself and the victim from further harm if possible - as an example make some bystander wearing an orange jacket go down the street in the direction the traffic comes from. He should wave to coming cars to slow down. Important for the victim is that you talk to him - most severely injured people don't remember many things from their accident, but some can tell that there was soemeone who talked to them and they knew they weren't lost and alone. Your observation during caring for the wounded might be important if the victim loses his consciousness and you can tell the EMT or physician that arrives that the injured felt pain in the belly but could move arms and legs properly. Those observations could be very helpful. I am glad to see that you all try to help and call your local ambulance service ;-)

    1) el nino es bajo y no es anciano. el niño es pequeño y no es viejo. - the boy is not old. el niño es pequeño y es joven. - the boy is young. better: el niño es pequeño y joven 2) ella es mujer y es bajo. ella es una mujer y es pequeña. - she is a woman and is small. better: ella es una mujer pequeña. 3) soy mujer y no soy hombre. soy una mujer y no soy un hombre. - I am a woman and I am not a man. well ... in most cases you would not say this - "soy una mujer" should exclude the rest ;-) 4) eres hombre y no eres el nino. eres un hombre y no eres un niño. - you are a man and you are not a boy. 5) ella nina es bajo ; no es anciana la niña es pequeña, no es vieja. - the girl is small, she is not old. la niña es pequeña, es joven. - the girl is small, she is young. or: la niña es pequeña y joven. anciano / anciana means old when you talk about very old people. bajo / baja means lower, deep, under - el voz de bajo - the bass voice
